Ladies & Gentlemen, we have a crawler!
Nicholas started crawling a few weeks ago, and just yesterday, began actually going long distances. He seems to be in a much better mood now that he can get around on his own. He's attempting to stand too (using anything he can to push himself up with, including daddy's face, lol), and we don't think it'll be long before he's walking.
Nicholas has been experimenting with little rice puffs, pancakes, chicken & noodles, pizza crust, etc. He's enjoying all the new foods he's trying!
We are really looking forward to Christmas this year, and can only imagine that it'll get better every year!

Almost 6 months old... my, how time flies!
I can't believe my little man is going to be 6 months old at the end of this month. Time really does fly, as every tells you, but it really, really does; almost unbelievably so. Nicholas is starting to get around pretty good these days. Not quite crawling yet, but rolling all over the place. As soon as he gets his arms figured out, we're going to have a crawler on our hands! He's sitting up for short periods of time on his own too. I just can't believe how they become so strong so fast!
He's still sleeping great, between 9 & 10 hours a night; he's been sleeping through the night since he was six weeks old. If baby's sleeping, that means we're sleeping; thus, we can deal with whatever he throws (sometimes literally) our way that day. :)
I'm still breastfeeding, but we started feeding him some oatmeal & fruits a few weeks ago. He likes some of the fruits, but most of the time, could do without the cereal. It can't taste much better than minced cardboard, so I can't say that I blame him. Every time we introduce a new fruit to him, he makes this face like we've just fed him poison, but does quickly get used to it! We plan on introducing veggies to him in the next few weeks sometime.
He's smiling most of the time these days; he's quite a happy little guy. What a difference a few months can make! He's starting to find Max, our golden retriever, hilarious, and has taken quite a liking to Lindsay Lohan, according to our sitter. Linda (our sitter) explains to him that though she may be nice to look at, she's a tramp, and should only be looked at from a very far distance. Thanks Linda! :) We have taken some video of him laughing and will post clips as soon we figure out how to do so!
Nicholas hasn't broken his first tooth yet, but chews on everything, and has for quite some time. It could be that he's just an infant, and that's what infants do, or he may be teething. It's really anyone's guess!

Nicholas is just over 4 months old now
How time flies! He's changing daily it seems, making new sounds, doing new things. At his 4 month check, he's almost 16 lbs. He's definitely an eater! :) Nicholas is still sleeping like a champ, usually 12 hours straight, but his napping has waned over the past week. He's getting over his first cold, so hopefully when he's feeling 100% his naps will get better! No naps (or very short naps) makes for one crabby little guy!
